Well I was about to just completely remove the blower fan and just stick a SP120 Quiet below it to blow on the metal "heat sink" frame, but I took a look at my stock fan and it looked about right for mounting holes, so I tried it.
The stock blower fan is slightly smaller in diameter than the Corsair one, but the mounting screws are in the same location. It fits with a slight gap around the edges (so it won't be as efficient as the Corsair blower fan). But it DOES fit. And it's much much quieter. With my 2 gentle typhoons at 1150 rpm or so (70% speed), the computer is completely silent and at roughly 34C for both the CPU (5820k) and GPU (980ti) at idle. The stock nvidia blower fan also has rubber padding on the bottom to prevent vibration, unlike the Corsair one.
This is a night and day difference, I'm so happy about the mod, definitely worth the hour or so it took to take everything apart.
Now all I need is the new standoffs and I'll be set... are those available yet?
